Four Brown Bear’s Big Day Out blank greeting cards
The story Brown Bear’s Big Day Out is about a bear that lives in a zoo who wants to go to the funfair and to do this he has to escape and therefore has to disguise himself as a person to do so. In the story he becomes a hero until his mask falls off and then everyone is afraid of him. I try in the story to show that we have to look at people more in depth and that what they look like is secondary to what the real person is behind the mask of first impressions. We have become a society obsessed with looks and yet real characteristics are anything but represented by this. In a world where we appear to be increasingly afraid of those we don’t know, we, especially younger people need to be able to socialise and be communicative with each other. In this extract Basil is the hero until the mask holding the elastic snaps and people realise that he is a bear and are then afraid.

So here’s the extract.
Everybody was glad that the little girl was safe and they all shouted, laughed and congratulated Basil, the hero of the day. People talked amongst themselves, “wasn’t he somebody famous?” He certainly looked familiar to many of the people there. It was only that nose, it did not seem quite right for the person that they thought it was. Hundreds of cameras and phones clicked as everyone wanted to take Basil’s photograph.
Suddenly there was a small ping sound as the elastic holding Basil’s facemask broke. Silence spread through the crowd, followed by panic, as everyone realised that Basil was a bear and they took a few steps backwards. Some people then screamed and started to move away but slowly just in case Basil chased them.

So here’s the extract.
Basil stepped off and this time he was a very, very wobbly bear, so much so he just had to sit down.
He sat and watched as the next group of people got on the big dipper. It was getting windy. Suddenly a gust of wind blew across the funfair and Basil turned when he heard a small scream. A very small girl with a very large balloon had been picked up and was being carried away by the wind.
“Help, help me,” the little girl cried as she and the balloon were carried higher and higher.
The people looked on not knowing what to do. The wind blew hard and the little girl and the balloon became stuck, high up underneath the big dipper.
“Help, help!” shouted the little girl.
Everyone stood still not moving, just staring with worried faces, all except Basil.

In Brown Bear’s Big Day Out, Basil, a brown bear dons a disguise so that he can escape from the zoo and go to a funfair called Dizzyland disguised as a person. On the way there he gets a little hungry so he pops into a fish and chip shop. It doesn’t taste like the fish he is normally given in the zoo but he rather likes it.
